International Festivals
International Kadampa Festivals are special courses taught by the Founder and Spiritual Director of the New Kadampa Tradition, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.
The Festivals include teachings and empowerments from the Spiritual Director, reviews and meditations led by Senior NKT Teachers, chanted meditations and offering ceremonies, and retreats to consolidate and deepen your understanding and experience.
Open to everyone, these International Festivals are a wonderful opportunity to meet with Buddhist practitioners from all over the world and share experience and understanding with them.

There are three International Festivals each year:
- The Spring Festival – held at Manjushri KMC in UK
- The Summer Festival – held at Manjushri KMC in UK
- The Fall Festival – held at various locations outside the UK
